Place the microphone inside the opening in the
front head.
1. Screw at least one or, if necessary, both of the
two supplied StA 550 extension stubs on an
ST 305 floor stand or a table stand.
2. Screw the microphone on the extension stub.
3. Place the stand with the microphone inside the
drum and aim the microphone at the point
where the beater hits the skin.
The sound will be the drier and harder, the
closer the microphone sits to the head.
Working distances around 1 inch provide the
famous "disco click".
If you prefer a rounder sound aim the micro-
phone at a point between the center and the
perimeter of the head.
